    Thanks for the info this is some great knowledge I didn't know. I'm in the works of swapping my 6thgen accord with a auto j32a2 and a Acura cl 6 speed. Idk if it's for all models but mines on a budget I got no crazy money for a fueltech ECU or Aem so I reached to PJ Walters, he mention to me he's making a ECU jumper harness for anyone going with a stock ECU and should be more for budget builds, also mentioned going that route you'd need a 2001-2003 Acura TL/cl ECU (Auto ECU) and the whole harness from the automatic. A jumper harness for the transmission will have to be made if you want full functionality for the transmission (reverse lights and speedometer) plz delete post if my knowledge is wrong just passing down the info for anyone going with auto j32a2

    How did you go about keeping the heat and headlights to working with using the cl harness

    • @octanemayhem2686
      @octanemayhem2686  10 дней назад

      @Jay-sw4mc Deleted all the heater and AC stuff. As for all the lights I just connected the Civic plugs to the corresponding wires on the CL harness. Running lights turn signals ect.. you could prob do the same with the heater unit but I didn't that for 1 it was too much extra time and research for the wiring at the time and I'm trying to make my car as light as possible. If you have the money PJs Customs will make you a jumper harness to be able run everything like factory.

    • @octanemayhem2686
      @octanemayhem2686  29 дней назад

      @alvinmckithen5140 TBH w that specific platform already being Kseries with a 6 speed id just invest in some upgrades for it as is. Unless you're really wanting a J and have the budget id say it would be cool. Or if you're getting a good deal on a rolling chassis. But for me personally if it's still K id leave it. Keep all the creature comforts. Invest in a turbo kit and a stand alone ECU.. Sometimes it sucks not having heat or AC in a budget swap like we've done. There's just too many variables to say for sure what the best route would be.
